Maybe I've chosen my words poorly. What I'm disputing is that Peterson et al are using the term "cultural marxism" in quite the same way as Breivik. I don't like the term. I'd prefer them to use "cultural revolution". I don't like that PeterNorway cynically conflates the two

There's no disputing that a good portion of academia are self-styled revoltionaries, and that they have a good hand in shaping young minds. As close as this might seem to the far-right conception of cultural marxism, there is such a thing as nuance

Similar enough to conflate the two? The "retarded" part of my post was presumably conflating Gramscians and "Cultural Marxists," which you might have picked up as an ironic and deliberate error, since PeterNorway (and yourself) don'thesitate to conflate conservatives and nazis

Perhaps I should have put "far-right" in quote-marks, to make it absolutely clear that I was using the term with some irony. The quoted tweet suggests that Peterson is the new "far-right" and that his use of "cultural marxism" is linked to Breivik's use of the term

My mistake, too, was thinking that the "apparently" might carry over the "paranoiac fever dreams" and have enough steam in them to qualify the "far-right". Apologies for my poor grammar
